Armor Description:
The Command Wolf IC's armor isn't too bad a combat Zoid, covering the main body, neck, back, tail, hips, and shoulders, but leaving the structure of the thin lower legs exposed. This armor is of a better make than the regular Command Wolf's armor, and the structure is stronger as well. The material is the same used on the Spinosapper, but there isn't quite as much of it.
Mobility and Power Source:
The Wolf, like its namesake, has excellent endurance. It's pretty agile, too, and the small wolf can handle running for extended distances at high speeds for a while. . However, its electron bite fangs will sap this Zoid's energy quickly, as they suck up a large portion of energy. Best if you pilot it like a real wolf, taking potshots here and there, tiring your enemy out instead of going in for the kill directly.
Special: Evolution Note
The Command Wolf Irvine Custom is of a different make than the standard Command Wolf, and the core is slightly different to handle the slightly heavier structure and armor. This means that the evolution to the Konig Wolf isn't consistent like the regular Command Wolf is. It may fail to evolve, or evolve into a defective Konig Wolf, or even a Konig with different abilities. It is recommended to attempt the evolution only after you have a distinct knowledge of your particular Zoid.
Electron Bite Fangs
Rows of razor-sharp alloy teeth line the Command Wolf IC's strong jaws. They can be charged up with electric energy for a lot of shocking electrical damage to go along with the physical damage. Generally used as a last resort, this equipment delivers quite a drain to the Command Wolf's energy supply. These operate exactly the same as those on the regular Command Wolf.
Strike Claw x4
One on the end of each of the Command Wolf's legs, these claws have toes made of sharp, extra-strength alloy. They're not exceptionally powerful, as the IC can't put a whole lot of weight behind its strikes, but they're useful if you get jumped and can't utilize your huge cannon.
Long-Range Rifle
This rather powerful AZ200mm cannon is mounted on the back of the Command Wolf on a seated turret with 360 degrees of horizontal pivoting and a little bit of vertical pivoting for aiming. It's large, loud, powerful, and accurate if used properly. Being a modified sniper cannon, it has a fairly slow firing rate, and you only get one shot per second. However, this thing creates a huge amount of muzzle flash upon firing, coupled with a resounding "BANG" and a good bit of smoke.
Booster Array
A pair of small thrusters, located on the back of the rifle, much like the Lightning Saix's boosters on the back of its cannons, which provide 10 kph of extra thrust each upon command to the small Wolf.
Smoke Discharger x2
Mounted on either side of the rear end of the Command Wolf over the hips are a pair of dual-barreled smokestacks. When activated, they discharge a large quantity of thick black smoke, able to quickly make a large smoke cloud to cover the Command Wolf from the rear.
Infrared
Other than allowing the Command Wolf to see distinguishable heat signatures and see through it's own smoke there isn't much to this basic sensor. On the Command Wolf IC, this feeds into the targeting for the main cannon turret for increased accuracy.
